When in the garage, going into the house to the computer is inconvenient because my shoes are dirty. Getting a book of the shelf is inconvenient because my hands are dirty. But I always have my smart phone with me. I go to Google and type in what I need. For instance, I can type in "convert 25 newton meters to foot pounds" and Google returns "25 newtons meter = 18.4390537 foot pound" If I need the area of a circle with a radius of 4, I type in, "pi(4)^2" and Google returns "pi * (4^2) = 50.2654825" Check out all the stuff Google can do for you: http://www.google.com/intl/en/help/features.html#calculator Have fun.

As usual, it was a GREAT show and all of the organizers did everything they could to make it a great time for all of us who exhibited! The 16 HP Galloway started the first time over on Wed. (the first time it had been run since last year) and continued to run perfectly until Thursday at about 1:00. At that time it simply stopped! It would fire when I tickled the ignitor to start it, but then not fire on it's own. I cleaned the ignitor (several times), tried a half turn on the hammer spring and several other things, but the old gal simply would not fire on her own and I was damned if I was going to stand there and trip the ignitor by hand every other time the piston reached IDC! So I simply enjoyed the rest of Thursday with a totally STATIONARY display! Friday morning Jim Dunmyer showed up and he and I talked the sad situation over and he "fiddled" with the ignitor a bit and then asked me to take it off the engine again. I did and Jim gave the points a quick look and suggested that the brass ring (which provides the ground) needed to be rotated 10 degrees (or so) in order to provide a new contact point for the "hot" point. (The ring had been worn [i.e. "burned"?] flat where it provided contact. I looked as though Ted Brookover (or someone) had done the same thing to the ring years ago when he rebuilt the ignitor.) We did so and BINGO--the Galloway started and ran perfectly for the rest of the show! THANKS JIM! Dave PS, Life is good--and even better when you have GOOD friends!

Depends on the size of the tank and what type of testing. For a small tank they usually do the test in a test vessel. On large tanks the requirements are a bit different and the tests are done in a different manner. > > Any idea on ballpark cost for the testing? Depends.

But let me ask you this. It wasn't quite a year ago, back in April 2010, when there was something going on with a thing they called "Deepwater Horizon." Remember it? As I recall, there were arm-wavers running around wailing at the tops of their lungs. It was going to turn the entire Gulf of Mexico into a barren sludge pit. Projections indicated there was enough oil to keep spewing for 125 years. The oil could coat the surface of the oceans across the globe, bringing on the extinction of mankind. Here we are, almost a year later, and the mention of Deepwater Horizon elicits a bored yawn, at best. The biggest repercussion of the disaster has been the Obama administration effectively canceling offshore drilling, forcing us to buy even more crude from our adversaries. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that there are experts working on the problem. If that's the case, the problem will eventually be solved. If it isn't, they'll just get some new experts who are better. That's the way things are done worldwide. On Deepwater Horizon, how many people were killed? Wasn't it eleven? How many people have been killed as a result of the failure of the Japanese nuclear power plants? Zero? Using that data and a quick session with the slide rule, we find that the Japanese nuclear plant failures are infinitely less significant than Deepwater Horizon. Here's a little bonus tip for you. Right after the Deepwater Horizon incident, BP stock took a nose dive. There were some sweet buying opportunities during that time period, and the price of BP has recovered to where it was one year before the incident. The Tokyo Stock Exchange plans to open as normal tomorrow, and surely you'll see TEPCO tank. Watch it over the next few weeks. There will be some buying opportunities, but the window will be small. Soon the hysteria will wane when it becomes evident that commercial nuke plants don't go up in a brilliant flash, a la Nagasaki.

Interesting reading. The situation is not good with having to use sea water for cooling as a last resort. It is fortunate they have been able to get the sea water. But, it could be much worse and I am sure many experts are being consulted.

Anyone who is not at least a bit worried about radiation release and/or a meltdown has got to be kidding! Everything about life is about taking chances and the generation of energy/power is just another such situation. Regardless of the outcome nuclear power IS the energy source of the future (both near and long run) but to be told at this point that "everything" will turn out just fine in Japan is a bit like POTUS telling us that the stimulus IS working--it's simply too soon to tell!

We currently have 3 collections in Kentucky we'll be visiting on the Sunday and Monday after the Coolspring show, then are going to Indiana to visit Kenny Wolf. We have some extra time on Monday afternoon/evening to visit another collection on our way to Kenny's place. Anyone know of a good collection not too far off the route from Cincinnati to Kenny Wolf's place? Currently, I've got us going past Indianapolis on our way to Kenny, but another route is possible.

I think I just added two more collections to the route today ;-) Problem with adding more stops is it means you sometimes have to leave one place you'd like to stay longer, but you can't as you've got to be at another collection later the same day. There's also that old cat herding problem I have to deal with to get people back in the van so we can make it to the next stop! Not sure why I let Harry talk me into doing this;-) I was planning on going to Nuenen this year and visiting my European friends again. I might complain, but you know I love doing this tour stuff :-) Just hope this tour group is half as good as the last one! The last tour group was great to travel with and I think we all had a pretty good time.

Of course we had no shortage of beer and other stuff the Royster boys were passing around. It definitely was not a tour for anyone that needed to stay away from alcohol in any form. Maybe I shouldn't have said anything about that. Some of those Aussies might think a beer and engines tour is to their liking and want to come along. ;-) Did I mention I was thinking next tour we would visit a brewery in Germany?

I know about where we have to be at what time to make the whole tour, it's hard to get evryone going when some are very interested where they are. It reminds me of something that happened in high school. One of my friends dad had an ice cream trucks, hired a man to run one of the routes. He started to get complaints that the truck was passing too fast, the kids couldn't get to the road before he passed. Red called the driver in and told him about the complaints, his reply was that the route was 31 miles long and if he didn't drive fast he wouldn't make the whole round. When it's time to leave I ask the group if they want to eat ice cream or make the route. J.B.

The first EHOWT had an afterhours tour of a 350 year old German brewery with all the beer we wanted to drink! Plus we also toured the sex museum and red light district of Amsterdam. The brewery tour was unplanned, but my German friend we were visiting is a good friend with the family that owns the brewery. We were asked if we'd like to tour the brewery, so we couldn't very well turn down that offer. It was a late evening visit and we picked up a stack of pizza's which we took to the brewery where the owners son had set up a keg for us to drink from, plus we could have any of the several beers and ales they brewed. Had a great time there. The Amsterdam part was also unplanned, but one of the group members (not myself) thought it was terrible to be so close to Amsterdam and not get to see some of his non-engine related interests. Steve.... you have to admit though on EHOWT2 you didn't lack anything to drink. Plus it wasn't my fault the trappist brewery had already sold out for the day. It was nice of Arnie though to buy that wheel of cheese from them.

After that it was in stand by mode for twenty years. Then moth balled until 1980, at which time they were rebuilt and placed back into service as peaking/emergency units. The six engines are Hamilton-M.A.N. double acting, two cycle, solid injection Diesel engines. Bore 24" stroke 36", 6850 B.H.P. @167 rpm.

The Louisville Water Company still has its big pump house (at the time it was built it contained the largest pumping system in the world) with the big steam engines in them.

Dad and I completed a 3200 km round trip in 38 hours to Roma in Qld and back. Well it was 100% seized solid but pretty well complete. Some considerable damage to the water pump, rotten out bottom of the cooling tower. Well although not quite yet completed I'm very close to trying to start it up for the first time in many years. I spent countless hours getting the engine pulled down. The piston was once again a huge effort just in inself. The bore after cleaning up looks great, piston and rings cleaned up very well and will be used as is. The cooling tower now has a new bum thanks to dad, new plunger for the water pump. Welded up the cast iron bottom end of the water pump and re-alined the water pipes. Cleaned out years of crap from the exhuast port; valve chest and pipe.. One new pare of glasses and 2 black eyes for letting go of the air intake valve while cleaning it on a wire wheel; (it was not fun and I was pretty lucky to only suffer that with a small chipped bone on my knose) freeing up the side shaft and governing system was a team effort with a good freind. Well it really is starting to look like a neat engine to say the least. Will hopefully find some more spare time in the comming weeks to finish of the feul system and she should be ready to try and fire up. regards Russell From kosh at ncweb.com Thu Mar 24 22:58:47 2011 From: kosh at ncweb.com (Dave Merchant) Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2011 01:58:47 -0400 Subject: [SEL] O5 Style Hornsby In-Reply-To: References: <5.2.1.1.2.20110324190639.020b5558@mail.vaal3hoek.co.za> <5.2.1.1.2.20110324190639.020b5558@mail.vaal3hoek.co.za> Message-ID: <5.2.0.9.0.20110325015744.03a6fc20@ncweb.com> Pix?!?!?!

I am doing some work for him right now and he has 3 FBM 208's that he is wanting to sell or scrap. I have no interest in them. He says there is enough in all 3 to make a complete engine with a lot of extra parts left over. I will be taking a few pic's of them later on today and can send them if anyone has interest. He pulled these engines off of some of his wells and then would rob parts off of them to fix other engines. I will try to find out what the years are. I do know that one of them has a cracked block. He does what to sell them for one money and is looking for offers. Since he is going to scrap them if they are not bought I am guessing that they can be bought for scrap price or even less if he doesn't have to mess with them any futher. If you are interested in them I can send you his contact info and you can deal with him directly. Tim Christoff Basehor KS.

As usual, it was a GREAT show and all of the organizers did everything they could to make it a great time for all of us who exhibited! The 16 HP Galloway started the first time over on Wed. (the first time it had been run since last year) and continued to run perfectly until Thursday at about 1:00. At that time it simply stopped! It would fire when I tickled the ignitor to start it, but then not fire on it's own. I cleaned the ignitor (several times), tried a half turn on the hammer spring and several other things, but the old gal simply would not fire on her own and I was damned if I was going to stand there and trip the ignitor by hand every other time the piston reached IDC! So I simply enjoyed the rest of Thursday with a totally STATIONARY display! Friday morning Jim Dunmyer showed up and he and I talked the sad situation over and he "fiddled" with the ignitor a bit and then asked me to take it off the engine again. I did and Jim gave the points a quick look and suggested that the brass ring (which provides the ground) needed to be rotated 10 degrees (or so) in order to provide a new contact point for the "hot" point. (The ring had been worn [i.e. "burned"?] flat where it provided contact. I looked as though Ted Brookover (or someone) had done the same thing to the ring years ago when he rebuilt the ignitor.) We did so and BINGO--the Galloway started and ran perfectly for the rest of the show! THANKS JIM! Dave PS, Life is good--and even better when you have GOOD friends!

Depends on the size of the tank and what type of testing. For a small tank they usually do the test in a test vessel. On large tanks the requirements are a bit different and the tests are done in a different manner. > > Any idea on ballpark cost for the testing? Depends. Small tanks like our air pack bottles run about 20 bucks each but the county does ours for free.

But let me ask you this. It wasn't quite a year ago, back in April 2010, when there was something going on with a thing they called "Deepwater Horizon." Remember it? As I recall, there were arm-wavers running around wailing at the tops of their lungs. It was going to turn the entire Gulf of Mexico into a barren sludge pit. Projections indicated there was enough oil to keep spewing for 125 years. The oil could coat the surface of the oceans across the globe, bringing on the extinction of mankind. Here we are, almost a year later, and the mention of Deepwater Horizon elicits a bored yawn, at best. The biggest repercussion of the disaster has been the Obama administration effectively canceling offshore drilling, forcing us to buy even more crude from our adversaries. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that there are experts working on the problem. If that's the case, the problem will eventually be solved. If it isn't, they'll just get some new experts who are better. That's the way things are done worldwide. On Deepwater Horizon, how many people were killed? Wasn't it eleven? How many people have been killed as a result of the failure of the Japanese nuclear power plants? Zero? Using that data and a quick session with the slide rule, we find that the Japanese nuclear plant failures are infinitely less significant than Deepwater Horizon. Here's a little bonus tip for you. Right after the Deepwater Horizon incident, BP stock took a nose dive. There were some sweet buying opportunities during that time period, and the price of BP has recovered to where it was one year before the incident. The Tokyo Stock Exchange plans to open as normal tomorrow, and surely you'll see TEPCO tank. Watch it over the next few weeks. There will be some buying opportunities, but the window will be small. Soon the hysteria will wane when it becomes evident that commercial nuke plants don't go up in a brilliant flash, a la Nagasaki.

But, it could be much worse and I am sure many experts are being consulted.

Anyone who is not at least a bit worried about radiation release and/or a meltdown has got to be kidding! Everything about life is about taking chances and the generation of energy/power is just another such situation. Regardless of the outcome nuclear power IS the energy source of the future (both near and long run) but to be told at this point that "everything" will turn out just fine in Japan is a bit like POTUS telling us that the stimulus IS working--it's simply too soon to tell!

I don't know which one has the museum, but both are out of the way and won't fit into this tour. I'm sure the group will see a Model T or two during the tour;-) Besides, this is an engine tour although I am making an exception to detour enough so the group can see Niagara Falls.

I think I just added two more collections to the route today ;-) Problem with adding more stops is it means you sometimes have to leave one place you'd like to stay longer, but you can't as you've got to be at another collection later the same day. There's also that old cat herding problem I have to deal with to get people back in the van so we can make it to the next stop! Not sure why I let Harry talk me into doing this;-) I was planning on going to Nuenen this year and visiting my European friends again. I might complain, but you know I love doing this tour stuff :-) Just hope this tour group is half as good as the last one! The last tour group was great to travel with and I think we all had a pretty good time.

Of course we had no shortage of beer and other stuff the Royster boys were passing around. It definitely was not a tour for anyone that needed to stay away from alcohol in any form. Maybe I shouldn't have said anything about that.

I know about where we have to be at what time to make the whole tour, it's hard to get evryone going when some are very interested where they are. It reminds me of something that happened in high school. One of my friends dad had an ice cream trucks, hired a man to run one of the routes. He started to get complaints that the truck was passing too fast, the kids couldn't get to the road before he passed. Red called the driver in and told him about the complaints, his reply was that the route was 31 miles long and if he didn't drive fast he wouldn't make the whole round. When it's time to leave I ask the group if they want to eat ice cream or make the route. J.B.

The first EHOWT had an afterhours tour of a 350 year old German brewery with all the beer we wanted to drink! Plus we also toured the sex museum and red light district of Amsterdam. The brewery tour was unplanned, but my German friend we were visiting is a good friend with the family that owns the brewery. We were asked if we'd like to tour the brewery, so we couldn't very well turn down that offer. It was a late evening visit and we picked up a stack of pizza's which we took to the brewery where the owners son had set up a keg for us to drink from, plus we could have any of the several beers and ales they brewed. Had a great time there. The Amsterdam part was also unplanned, but one of the group members (not myself) thought it was terrible to be so close to Amsterdam and not get to see some of his non-engine related interests. Steve.... you have to admit though on EHOWT2 you didn't lack anything to drink. Plus it wasn't my fault the trappist brewery had already sold out for the day. It was nice of Arnie though to buy that wheel of cheese from them.

Dad and I completed a 3200 km round trip in 38 hours to Roma in Qld and back. Well it was 100% seized solid but pretty well complete. Some considerable damage to the water pump, rotten out bottom of the cooling tower. Well although not quite yet completed I'm very close to trying to start it up for the first time in many years. I spent countless hours getting the engine pulled down. The piston was once again a huge effort just in inself. The bore after cleaning up looks great, piston and rings cleaned up very well and will be used as is. The cooling tower now has a new bum thanks to dad, new plunger for the water pump. Welded up the cast iron bottom end of the water pump and re-alined the water pipes. Cleaned out years of crap from the exhuast port; valve chest and pipe.. One new pare of glasses and 2 black eyes for letting go of the air intake valve while cleaning it on a wire wheel; (it was not fun and I was pretty lucky to only suffer that with a small chipped bone on my knose) freeing up the side shaft and governing system was a team effort with a good freind. Well it really is starting to look like a neat engine to say the least. Will hopefully find some more spare time in the comming weeks to finish of the feul system and she should be ready to try and fire up. regards Russell From kosh at ncweb.com Thu Mar 24 22:58:47 2011 From: kosh at ncweb.com (Dave Merchant) Date: Fri, 25 Mar 2011 01:58:47 -0400 Subject: [SEL] O5 Style Hornsby In-Reply-To: References: <5.2.1.1.2.20110324190639.020b5558@mail.vaal3hoek.co.za> <5.2.1.1.2.20110324190639.020b5558@mail.vaal3hoek.co.za> Message-ID: <5.2.0.9.0.20110325015744.03a6fc20@ncweb.com> Pix?!?!?!

I am doing some work for him right now and he has 3 FBM 208's that he is wanting to sell or scrap. I have no interest in them. He says there is enough in all 3 to make a complete engine with a lot of extra parts left over. I will be taking a few pic's of them later on today and can send them if anyone has interest. He pulled these engines off of some of his wells and then would rob parts off of them to fix other engines. I will try to find out what the years are. I do know that one of them has a cracked block. He does what to sell them for one money and is looking for offers. Since he is going to scrap them if they are not bought I am guessing that they can be bought for scrap price or even less if he doesn't have to mess with them any futher. If you are interested in them I can send you his contact info and you can deal with him directly. Tim Christoff Basehor KS.

I tried to retrieve some other pics from our dead pc but they will not open up (from a memory stick) because I think the files are just to corrupt?? Anyway I have some pics added I did today. The work still to do, finish fuel system, Clean up crank guard and oiler system for big end. I'm having the cooling tower water inlet/spray thingi cast from an original and also getting the same done for the water cooler filling cup bit! I have got hold of some nice aged timber to redo the tool box to try and keep it looking old and rustic. Still need to clean up the flywheel and machine x2 hub caps for the transport. I have two spares from an earlier trolley but they are just a little under size for this one. Lat pic is of a 3hp stationary which will go well being parked besides the portable. http://community.webshots.com/album/552706235FvuJTj cheers Russell From rdhaskell at juno.com Sat Mar 26 19:42:22 2011 From: rdhaskell at juno.com (rdhaskell at juno.com) Date: Sat, 26 Mar 2011 19:42:22 -0700 Subject: [SEL] Hornsby pics Message-ID: <20110326.194245.990.528778@mailpop02.vgs.untd.com> Great pictures Russell, thanks.

I'm sure that you're fully aware of the substantial differences. There is one very noteworthy engine at that auction, though, that would be suitable for the collection of an esteemed Doctor of Brain Molecule Ology. Just send me your credit card number, and I'll buy it for you.
